I wish I were normal - but then life would be boring.
I just set up a wireless network using a Linksys WMP11 (PCI card) and a
WAP11. I get clear communication under normal conditions:
wlan0: 34. 53. 0% loss
wlan0: 36. 54. 0% loss
wlan0: 34. 53. 0% loss
wlan0: 34. 52. 0% loss
wlan0: 34. 53. 0% loss
wlan0: 38. 57. 0% loss
wlan0: 34. 52. 0% loss
wlan0: 36. 55. 0% loss
When I play MP3's using xmms, I get packet loss:
wlan0: 30. 46. 0% loss
wlan0: 32. 48. 5% loss
wlan0: 26. 41. 6% loss
wlan0: 34. 52. 8% loss
wlan0: 30. 47. 5% loss
wlan0: 36. 54. 5% loss
wlan0: 34. 51. 8% loss
wlan0: 34. 52. 10% loss
wlan0: 34. 52. 5% loss
wlan0: 36. 56. 5% loss
wlan0: 32. 49. 1% loss
What you are looking at is the interface (wlan0), link quality, signal
level, and packet loss from my workstation to the WAP.
Does anyone have a suggestion how I can listen to MP3's and not have
packet loss?
